Love knocks once and never later Slicker than an alligator Hotter than a red hot 'tater Dog-gone it baby I'm in love Love's a bug that up and bit me I don't know or care what hit me I'll be yours if you permit me Dog-gone it baby I'm in love Love is like atomic bomb Works like the same effect The heart it hits is blown to bits And what else could you expect Love can make a fellar dizzy Throw him plumb into a tizzy Even keep a loafer busy Dog-gone it baby I'm in love Love can tame the wildest rover Hits you hard and bowls you over Makes you happy as a cow in clover Dog-gone it baby I'm in love Mustard cutting stage or older Eskimo's are even colder Warms you up and makes you bolder Dog-gone it baby I'm in love Gophers go for other gophers Honey temps the bee Mouse or man it's nature's plan And it's getting the best of me You're the cause you gorgeous creature Let's make this a double feature And I'll go and fetch the preacher Dog-gone it baby I'm in love
